The rest of the fighters will get released each month starting with Alex in March and concluding with the 6th DLC character in September. Capcom also plans to launch a story mode expansion in June, which will be released as a free update to all the users.

Capcom plans to support Street Fighter V in the long run and has already outlined their plans. This includes monthly free content updates and DLC characters. These DLC characters can be bought as part of the Season Pass for $29.99 or they can be purchased for free in game by using Fight Money, which is a virtual currency that players earn in the game by fulfilling various conditions.

Street Fighter V will be out on February 16th for the PC and PS4. It is developed and published by Capcom.
